Daytrip offers a perfect solution for every budget and travel style - a shared shuttle departing five times a day with a small group of up to 10 passengers, or a private car where you're in charge of the itinerary and schedule. Both options will get you from Tamarindo to La Fortuna, door-to-door, in about 3 hours 52 minutes in unmatched safety and comfort.
